On Friday, February 8, 2013, Bert Kizer, Jr. entered that beautiful garden of God. Born to the late Mr. Bert Sr. and Ms. Louise Rodriquez in New York, he was the oldest of seven children.

After relocating to South Carolina, he became a member of Friendship Baptist Church; pastored by A. A.

He loved his motorcycles and his music; especially Lee Williams. Bert lived by the motto and saying "I'm just a noboby; trying to tell everybody about somebody who can save anybody." *The wonderful memories of his life and beautiful presense will be reflected upon all who loved him.
